Airline security to be raised The two-step process will result in a numerical and color score for each passenger. A "red" rating means a passenger will be prohibited from boarding. "Yellow" indicates a passenger will receive additional scrutiny at the checkpoint, and a "green" rating paves the way for a standard trip through security. This is dreadfully inefficient. Passengers who constitute no threat to The State could board much more quickly if degenerates were required to wear triangular patches in the color of the threat they represent to homeland security. Later, the granularity could be improved by adding a pink patch to represent a threat somewhere between yellow and red. Tattoos are another highly-efficient and attractive alternative, in case it is necessary to strip-seasch travelers - since current fashion trends approve highly of permanent body markings and mutilations. 6:59:03 PM    comment []

Former comrade “Big O” has deviated from the official party line and therefore must be summarily destroyed. 6:22:47 PM    comment []

Hands Across The Border Monday's meeting between President George W. Bush and Vicente Fox, his Mexican counterpart, in Monterey could push culinary metaphors to the limit. Almost three years ago, Jorge Castañeda, then the Mexican foreign secretary, said he wanted "the whole enchilada or nothing" when he came to immigration reform. Bush's proposal last week on immigration, which will probably dominate the discussion, falls short of the whole enchilada. But you need a detailed knowledge of Mexican cooking to decide exactly what it is. I’m not gonna get into the food, except maybe to talk about my Eternal Chili a little later, what is intriguing here is the Bush’s opportunity to do something we’ve all wanted to do, have a meeting with our Mexican counterparts. My Mexican counterpart is Pablo Hidalgo and there was too little time to fly down to Saltillo, Mexico, where he lives, so I just engaged him on internet chat. You have just entered room "Chat 29628998472214772953." Paulh: ¿Hola, Pablo, cómo está colgando? :-) Pablo: ¿Quién es éste? :-X   Paulh: ¡Soy sus contrapartes americanas! ¿Usted tienen gusto de la cerveza de la Corona con una cal?   Pablo: Qué usted desean, estoy ocupado.   Paulh: Deseo discutir nuestra relación especial. ¿Usted planea trabajar en California después de que los almacenes de la tienda de comestibles enciendan a todos los trabajadores que pulsan para el cuidado médico beneficie?   Pablo has disconnected from room "Chat 29628998472214772953."   That was really fun! I think I’ll do it again next year! I couldn’t have done it at all without altavista. 5:58:46 PM    comment []
